What is music to you? What does it give you?

It's just entertainment to me. And it can often help you when you are down, when you hear a song you can relate to or one that makes you happy. But these days I am not often down or depressed, so right now it's just great entertainment to me. I enjoy hearing a great song that blows me away with it's quality.

What is your music dream?

I just want to be able to make a living off of music while still staying anonymouse. But that's probably too much to ask for.

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

Ending all wars and poverty (if possible)

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

I don't know. There are probably multiple of those.

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

I don't really have favorite artists and bands. A lot of people make good music. My favorite funkband at the moment is probably Atmosfear because their stuff is great. I really like their style. I can't really name any favorite artists from the other genres that I listen to, there are a lot of good artists and bands. I also can't say that Atmosfear is the best funk band ever, I just really like their stuff. There are bands out there that are just as good or even better, but I have been listening to Atmosfear's music a lot lately. Poolside also make really good Nu Disco music. I also like listening to their stuff.

What inspires you to make music?

It's just a hobby that I enjoy doing. And the fact that I can make it exactly how I want it to be is great. Sometimes when listening to music I think "I would do this different if it was my own song." or "This House track is a bit too repetitive. If only I could fix that." Sometimes the song is good for the most part but then there's this one element that I don't like... If it were my own song I could just change that. But really, I just make music for fun. It's a good hobby.

What is the message you want to send with your music?

I don't really have a specific message. But my music often says something like this: "Enjoy life and stay positive." My music often sounds happy and joyful. Sometimes the name of the track is also related to that mood. My music is instrumental and I guess it's up to the listener to figure out what it could be about or could mean, like with abstract art. I never actually think of a specific message when making my tracks, I just try to make something that sounds good.

How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

I have never performed live.

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

Musicians cannot make money as easily since people do not buy music anymore. They just stream via services like Spotify.

What do you think of Drooble?

It's a great site that can possibly help me grow a fanbase.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

It's hard to get heard. There is so much music out there and you need very good marketing if you want to get more listeners.

Do you support your local scene as a fan? How?

Not really.

What qualities should a musician nowadays have in order to get their music heard by a larger audience?

Mostly good marketing tbh. Your music should sound good unless you want to have a lot of haters, but marketing seems to be more important.

Share some awesome artists that we’ve never heard of.

Janji, Axero, Cryosion, Dr Packer
